AIDEN WAS EXCITED ABOUT HIS TRANSFORMER TRACKS AND AUSTIN WAS EXCITED ABOUT HIS HANDY MANNY. THEY ALSO GOT MONEY FOR THEIR ACCOUNTS THAT THEY WILL BE REAL EXCITED ABOUT ONE DAY:)! AFTER THE KIDS GOT THEIR GIFTS THE BIG KIDS PLAYED DIRTY SANTA. WE HAD SOME GOOD FOOD TOO AND MOMMY GOT A VERY SPECIAL SURPRISE! MI MI STARTED MY BLOG COLLECTION AND HAD THE FIRST THREE MONTHS PRINTED FOR ME. THEY SAID BECAUSE I HAVE SO MANY PAGES TO MINE IT WOULD BE BEST TO DO THEM IN VOLUMES, SO THIS IS VOLUME 1! I GUESS YOU COULD SAY THAT WHEN I GET DONE I WILL HAVE A BOOK CASE FULL! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME AND I TOLD RJ HE COULD BUY ME ONE OF THESE FOR THE REST OF MY BIRTHDAY AND CHRISTMAS PRESENT'S AND I WOULD BE HAPPY! I DO THIS BLOG FOR THEM AND IT IS THE ONLY RECORDS I HAVE OF THEM SO THAT IS WHY I TRY MY BEST TO KEEP IT UP AND I NOW I AM SO THANKFUL THAT MOM STARTED THIS COLLECTION FOR ME THAT I WILL CHERISH FOREVER! THANK YOU MOM, I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH!!!

I GUESS THE BOYS WERE PRETTY GOOD THIS YEAR BECAUSE THEY GOT EVERYTHING THEY ASKED FOR AND MORE!! THEY WERE SO FUN TO WATCH CHRISTMAS MORNING AND JAX WAS JUST CHECKING IT ALL OUT. AUSTIN RAN RIGHT TO HIS TRACTOR WITH PEDALS AND AIDEN RAN TO THE TRAIN TABLE. THEN HE FOUND HIS DRUMS AND AUSTIN FOUND HIS REAL GUITAR. THEY HAVE ENTERTAINED US WITH BOTH AND WE WILL GET AUSTIN SET UP FOR SOME LESSONS AS SOON AS WE FIND SOMEONE THAT WILL WORK WITH HIM. THE ONLY PLACES I HAVE FOUND START THEM AT 5 YEARS OLD. JAX LOVED HIS LITTLE CAR AND AUSTIN HAS HAD FUN PUSHING HIM ALL OVER THE HOUSE. I HAVE TO SAY THEY ARE SO BLESSED LITTLE BOYS AND I HOPE THEY ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT!!

SINCE DADDY WORKED SO HARD ON THE BOYS PLAY HOUSE MAKING IT NICE AND COZY FOR THEM SANTA BROUGHT THEM A NEW GROCERY STORE AND KITCHEN SET FOR INSIDE AND MAIL BOX AND GAS STATION FOR OUTSIDE. I THINK THEY WILL LOVE PLAYING IN THERE NOW. DADDY PUT INSULATION IN AND CLOSED THE WALLS IN, GOT POWER OUT TO IT SO THEY CAN HAVE LIGHT AND HEAT AND PUT CARPET DOWN. HE PAINTED THE WALL WITH CHALKBOARD PAINT, SO THEY CAN DRAW ALL OVER THOSE. I LOVE IT AND I KNOW THEY WILL TOO!! THANK YOU DADDY FOR WORKING SO HARD ON IT TO HAVE IT READY FOR "SANTA"!!!

DADDY HAS ALWAYS WANTED A NICE KARAOKE SET, BUT WOULD NEVER BUY ONE UNTIL HE SAW HIS BOYS SINGING ON IT LAST WEEKEND. NOW THEY HAVE A NICE SET UP WITH ABOUT 7,000 SONGS TO CHOOSE FROM AND RJ TOLD THE GUY HE COULD NOT BUY IT UNLESS IT HAD "COUNTRY" AND "BIG GREEN TRACTOR". THEY SANG ON IT ALL DAY CHRISTMAS DAY AND I GOT TO TAKE PICTURES WITH MY NEW SURPRISE! I DO NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT CAMERAS AND THE ONLY THING I KNOW HOW TO DO IS TAKE A PICTURE AND VIDEO, BUT I HOPE TO GET SOME LESSONS ON IT SOON! I LOVE IT ALREADY AND YOU ALL KNOW I WILL GET SOME GOOD USE OUT OF IT:)! THE BOYS AND JAXSON GOT ME A GIFT CERTIFICATE TO THE SPA THAT I LOOK FORWARD TO USING SOON TOO! I AM ONE LUCKY WOMAN AND I THANK GOD FOR ALL MY BOYS:)! I KNOW THEY WILL ALL TAKE CARE OF ME FOREVER:)!

THE BOYS SLEPT IN OUR BED CHRISTMAS EVE,SO WE COULD MAKE SURE THEY DID NOT GET UP WHILE SANTA WAS HERE:)! AUSTIN WAS NOT FEELING WELL AND HAD A FEVER, SO WE MADE HIM TAKE HIS JAMMIE'S OFF TO COOL OFF. WELL, AIDEN DECIDED HE WANTED HIS OFF TOO. THIS WAS THEM KNOCKED OUT AND ALL CUDDLED UP. I THINK THIS IS SO SWEET AND THEY SLEEP SO GOOD LIKE THIS. THERE IS NO WAY I COULD SLEEP LIKE THIS,BUT THEY ARE JUST COMFORTABLE BEING THAT CLOSE!

I HOPE YOU ALL HAD A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS, I KNOW WE DID. WE ARE SO BLESSED AND I THANK GOD FOR MY WONDERFUL FAMILY HE HAS BLESSED ME WITH. WE HAVE HAD A FUN, BUT BUSY DAY AND I HAVE TONS OF PICTURES TO POST. I WILL GET THEM ALL ON HERE SOON,BUT FOR NOW THIS MOMMY NEEDS TO CLOSE HER EYES:)! SANTA CALLED FOR "BACKUP" LAST NIGHT AND I FINALLY SHUT MY EYES AT 5:30 THIS MORNING AND GOT A QUICK CAT NAP IN BEFORE THE BOYS WERE BACK UP AT 7:30! THE EXCITEMENT ON THEIR FACES WAS WORTH EVERY BIT OF IT THOUGH AND THANKS TO MI MI AND PAW PAW WE CAUGHT AN AFTERNOON NAP AFTER OUR BIG FAMILY BREAKFAST!! WE CELEBRATED CHRISTMAS WITH MY FAMILY TONIGHT,SO I HAVE THOSE PICTURES TO CATCH UP ON TOO!!!

LAST NIGHT WE HAD CHRISTMAS WITH GI GI AND PAW PAW. THE BOYS WERE SO EXCITED AND COULD NOT WAIT TO OPEN PRESENTS. WE HELD THEM OFF A LITTLE WHILE,BUT NOT LONG. THE BOYS LOVED THEIR GIFTS AND JAX LOVED THE BOX:)! THEY HAVE NOT GOTTEN THEIR BIG TRACTOR AND BULL DOZIER OUT YET, BUT I KNOW THEY ARE GOING TO LOVE THEM!!! THEY ALSO GOT SOME MONEY FOR THEIR ACCOUNTS AND I KNOW ONE DAY THEY WILL APPRECIATE THAT EVEN MORE! UNCLE MIKE, AUNT CARRIE AND UNCLE PATRICK GOT THEM SOME PRESENTS TOO THAT THEY LOVED! THANK YOU ALL FOR EVERYTHING! WE LOVE YOU! WE MISSED MADISON. SHE WAS AT HOME SICK,BUT WE HOPE TO SEE HER SOON AND GIVE HER HER PRESENTS! AUSTIN STARTED FEELING BAD WHEN WE WOKE UP FROM HIS NAP YESTERDAY AND ENDED UP GETTING SICK AT GI GI AND PAW PAWS HOUSE. THAT WHY HE ENDED UP IN HIS CAR JAMMIE'S:)! HE IS STILL SICK WITH FEVER, BUT HE HAS BEEN SUCH A TROOPER.

WE MADE JESUS A BIRTHDAY CAKE AND SANG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HIM! I HOPE AND PRAY THAT THEY WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT OUR SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST AND NOTHING ABOUT SANTA AND ALL THE PRESENTS. MY UNCLE TERRY IS A PREACHER AND HE HAS A BOY AND GIRL THAT ARE NOW GROWN AND IN COLLEGE, BUT THEY NEVER DID THE SANTA THING. I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT WAS SO CRAZY AND WONDERED HOW IN THE WORLD THEY DID THAT,BUT BEING A MOMMY I UNDERSTAND NOW. IT IS SO EASY FOR KIDS AND ADULTS, FOR THAT MATTER TO GET SO WRAPPED UP IN SANTA AND PRESENTS AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE REAL MEANING OF CHRISTMAS THAT I WISH SANTA CAME A WEEKEND EARLIER OR LATER AND HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH CHRISTMAS. IT WOULD MAKE IT MUCH EASIER FOR KIDS TO UNDERSTAND THE REAL MEANING OF CHRISTMAS!
